The Ultimate Montreal Boat Tour
Nice small tour
Our guide was great. Nice little boat ride. Not much to see on the water which was not the tour owner’s fault. But we enjoyed this tour.

Ottawa City Highlights 3 Hour Walking Tour | Gratuity-Based
Great tour of the city centre, including historic highlights of Canada. Very informative & friendly guide
Excellent tour of the sites of Ottawa, taking in the Parliament buildings, the parks and the markets. Ibrahim was a knowledgeable guide explaining the historic beginnings of Canada and Ottawa, and answered all our questions. Thoroughly recommend the tour to visitors.
